ok im thinking about getting one, but, i need to know what i need for the swap and to get it barred in my car, I have a d15b in my eg8, so i need a list of what im going to need. well thank for your time and help

 

you need to research

 

can i even get a jdm engine barred?

 

don't know about being barred but you would need to use your wiring harness for the injectors. and you need OBD2 injectors and dizzy

 

really even tho its obd1?

 

If you buy a swap, buy a complete swap, it comes with everything you need to swap the engine. You use your existing harness, get the knock sensor off the JDM harness and wire it from your ECU to the knock sensor. You also need to lengthen the IAT sensor a few inches because it's in a different location on the B16A. A complete swap is more cost effective than buying everything separately, I did the calculations and saved a lot of money buying a complete swap from Hmotors. My experience with Hmotors was great, the engine is really really clean, has great compression, and runs strong. The B16A exhaust manifold bolted straight up to my catalytic converter, which was nice, I but have a Si, so this might be different for you. You might need to modify your exhaust to make it work. I'm sure you can get swaps for cheaper other places but it isn't worth the worry and headache is something goes wrong with the swap. Screw that.

 

well thx

 

i got an jdm b16a engine with a hollow cat so i need to replace my cat.. is it possible to use a magnaflow obd2 cat? and just not plug in the o2 sensor on it and leave the o2 sensor on the pipe where its after the cat? will i get a CEL ?
